Lyme Regis and West Bay Harbour Dredging

The West Bay or Bridport Harbour and the Lyme Regis Harbour both provide safe mooring and launching facilities for small boats and are also important refuge harbours along the Dorset coast for any vessels at sea that may be in distress. The same Harbour Master has jurisdiction over both harbours. It is essential that annual dredging operations are carried out at the two harbours, and, because of their proximity to one another, it is expedient that these operations are carried out as one contract.
